This command lets you select print quality, character pitch, and several other printing features
with a single command. The values of the four variables (n
1
n
2
n
3
n

) determine which features
are selected.
To calculate the value for each variable, first find the features you want in the Variable Values
table below. Next, add the corresponding values from column one for each variable. Then add
the appropriate factor for each variable taken from Table 22.

Here are some pointers on using this command:
You don't have to use all four variables; use only the ones that control the features you want
to change.
You can enter the variables in any order.
Be sure to add in the variable factor when calculating the variable values—this number tells
the printer which variable is which.
You'll get unexpected results if you select incompatible features (e.g., if you pick both 10
and 12 cpi), or if you've added up the values incorrectly.
